President Donald Trump defended White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, in a Monday morning tweet.
This comes after the Red Hen restaurant of Lexington, Virginia refused to serve Sarah Sanders Friday night and the others along with her.
The restaurant owner of the Red Hen refused service to Sarah over “moral convictions.” She said to The Washington Post, “I have a business, and I want the business to thrive. This feels like the moment in our democracy when people have to make uncomfortable actions and decisions to uphold their morals.”

Shortly after, the President retweeted Marco Rubio’s tweet.
“Trump haters still haven’t realized how much they help him with their condescension of those who either voted for him or don’t share their hatred of him. And how much they help him with their irrational hostility towards those who work for him.”
